Representation Summary:

MIN25 is located in an integral part of the village. This will undoubtedly have a negative effect on all villagers many of whom live within 250 m of the proposed site. I personally strongly object due to the negative health problems resulting from fine airborne particles.[Redacted personal data]. The inevitably noise, disturbance and upheaval will impact villagers' mental health and enjoyment of their environment. There will be diggers and loaders daily dealing with the movement/filtering/shaking/sieving of stones and sand etc along with traffic and pollution from 80 HGV movements per day using compulsory reversing bleepers.
Please carefully consider, this proposal is to be set in the middle of a quiet Norfolk village.
This contradicts the Mineral Strategic Objectives, particularly MS07, which states "To ensure potential impacts on the amenity of those people living in proximity to minerals development are effectively controlled, minimised and mitigated to acceptable levels".
I do not feel this proposal takes into consideration the village and the occupiers.
